Fatted C’s Pancetta & smooshed garlic on bamboo cutting board (thank you Mr. Meathead)
I cain’t speak for you, but this weather/season change has got me befaddled. Usually October is our warmest part of the year and it just ain’t comin’ up that way. No sir, which is why it is time for some roasts. It’s time for roasts, such as pot roasts, pork loin roasts and ham roasts. Tee hee, guess what? Fatted Calf has fresh smoked hams this week. I know Emil was looking for them last week and accidentally bypassed the pork shoulder roasts. Now he can get what he needs, a little ham love. I also see they have some fancy Pork Crepinettes with Hot Pimenton and Orange, I’ll need a few of those. Oh look, Toscano Salami !! Papa love this one. I would love another hunk of Pate, but ain’t sure I should be eating an entire loaf each week. Ah well, what ya gonna do.

Located at the Berkeley Farmer’s Market this coming Saturday morning. You go.
Do you have someone in your life who turns you on to cool, new things? It’s always nice to know a person to tip you off to the latest Japanese pop sensation, cool vintage sneaker store, longest lasting manicure, hidden away hiking spot or $10.00 Prosecco. We at Team Fatted Calf always want to be the ones to tip you off to the newest Taste Sensation (the best sensation of them all!), and we know that we are dealing with a very sophisticated crowd. Yeah, some of you wouldn’t be impressed with anything less than a goose neck stuffed with said gooses’ innards and boiled in some homemade mead, or something. Well, sorry, Those People, this week we are going to wow you with something simply wonderful, and we bet you’ll like it. Let’s go to Spain this weekend! Even if you’ve heard of the Spanish Spice Sensation Pimenton, we bet you haven’t had it along with orange in Taylor’s crepinettes. If it doesn’t inspire you to break out the castanets, we think it will cause you to break out some Rioja and dream about a hot afternoon at the Alhambra, with the scent of orange blossoms permeating the air.
See you at the market!
